The 2026 ‘Northwest Terror Fest‘ lineup is coming out swinging with its initial announcement. Booked for Neumos and Barboza in Seattle, WA from May 07th to 09th, next year’s festival will play host to an exclusive U.S. reunion show from death ‘n’ roll/thrashers Black Breath. Reactivated metalcore trailblazers Deadguy will also be partaking in the festivities, tailoring a set around their 1995 debut album, “Fixation On A Co-Worker” with additional fan favorites.
Virginian grinders Pig Destroyer have a similar idea in mind, having been booked to celebrate 25 years of their third studio album, “Prowler In The Yard” along with some fan favorites as well. Beyond that, you have a PNW exclusive set from Kylesa, which in light of their revamped lineup now including Nausea‘s Roy Mayorga and John John Jesse, will also feature some Nausea tracks in the set.
